Living in an era of change is not easy. It is difficult for a person to adapt to the changing world, to find his place in it. At the level of a specific human life, global changes seem to be a real catastrophe.

Step 1
What is change? First of all, this is a violation of the usual routine and way of life, which allows you to live easily and simply, calmly moving with the flow. Of course, in such a “cozy” state, any changes are perceived as something negative, since they require additional activity. The simplest example is that most people, growing up, believe that everything was much better in childhood, although objectively now life is easier and more interesting. But the usual patterns of behavior, the absence of significant responsibility in childhood, the established order of life - all this from the height of the "adult experience" is perceived as something very understandable, simple and comfortable.
Step 2
On the other hand, life, in essence, is constant change. And we are not even talking about something global. Any person grows, develops, matures and ages. It is personal changes that are common to all these states. Some people cope well with such processes, while others are constantly trying to return themselves to their previous comfortable state.
Step 3
It is difficult to predict in advance how a particular person will react to changing conditions. It depends on upbringing, character traits, living conditions. Some people form in their heads a very accurate picture of their future life, from which they are not going to retreat a single step, in this case any forced changes will be perceived as a real catastrophe. Other people are ready for changes, they know how to adapt to changed circumstances, so they can benefit from them.
Step 4
In any case, fear of change is in most cases a form of self-defense. In the minds of most people, changing some part of life means cutting off all the good that was associated with it. At the same time, it is not the changes themselves that turn out to be frightening, but a state of uncertainty, when the old (and good) has already had to be abandoned, but it is completely incomprehensible what will replace it.
Step 5
People are afraid of innovations because they suspect that they pose a threat, require reform and effort. It's a pity that most people see only negative things in change, because personal attitude is very important in this case. Marriage can be seen as a restriction of freedom or the beginning of a new life, starting a family, having a child can be a burden, or it can become an opportunity to continue your family line.
